The Government recognises the importance of touring for UK musicians and other cultural and creative practitioners, and their support staff.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Leaving the EU has always meant that there would be changes to how touring artists operate in the EU. DCMS has engaged with the sector extensively throughout negotiations and since the announcement of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement to understand the diverse circumstances of companies, organisations and individual practitioners and how they may need to adapt as they plan activity across the European Union.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Going forward we will continue to work closely with the sector, including with representative organisations, to ensure businesses and individuals have the advice and guidance they need to meet new requirements. Touring artists should always check individual member state requirements as these differ across different countries. In some cases, visas and work permits may not be required.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

We know that while leaving the EU will bring changes and new processes to touring and working in the EU, it will also bring new opportunities. In all circumstances, we expect UK musicians\u2019 work to continue to be an export that is as highly valued in the European Union as it is across the world.<\/p>
